48 Is the answer that should be removed !
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Add 3 standard deviations above and below the mean to get the range in which 99.7% of the data in a normal distribution will fall
6.5 + 4.5 = 11
6.5 - 4.5 = 2
So 2 to 11 ounces would be the interval
Without LCD :
1/2(4x + 6) = 1/3(9x - 24)
2x + 3 = 3x - 8
2x - 3x = -8 - 3
-x = - 11
x = 11
with LCD :
1/2(4x + 6) = 1/3(9x - 24) ...multiply by 6
3(4x + 6) = 2(9x - 24)
12x + 18 = 18x - 48
12x - 18x = -48 - 18
-6x = - 66
x = -66/-6
x = 11
Yes, the answers are the same :)
